{Release Blitz} Heartless by Grace Goodwin

 


Heartless by Grace Goodwin is now live!



Warrior. Doctor. Spy. I am Commander Helion, a heartless terror, relentless and unforgiving. Merciless. 
My destiny is not to claim a female, to have a family, to be rendered helpless by love.
Despite this, I am matched. A beautiful human female is now mine. Despite my warnings, she is determined to leave her mark on me, body and soul.
Honor demands I resist. I tell her the truth. I will not place a mating collar around her neck. I cannot protect her—especially from me—my choices—the horrors I face every day.
Just one moment of weakness and she gets under my skin, makes me want things I cannot have. She is everything I am not—and the most dangerous creature I have ever faced.
Claiming her—keeping her—is not possible with my pivotal role in this never-ending war. There is no place in my duties for desire. For need. Too many innocents count on me for protection. Too many lives are at stake, including hers.
The enemy is always ready and waiting, but I never expected her to be among them.
For the first time in my hardened life, I question my sanity. My dark soul. I begin to understand exactly what my enemies have stolen from me—and realize there is no limit to what a heartless warrior will sacrifice for love.


 REVIEW

This is the first in the Primal Mates series but its apart of the main series Interstellar Brides. I was excited for this one because Helion has been an important figure through out the series and side series. I was curious on how this character was going to handle being matched and having a mate.

Heartless follows Willow who was rescued from a Hive ship and went through hell, she has finally put herself together in a way and has also been chosen as a bride being mated to Commander Helion. However Helion though good looking, powerful and intelligent, he has a one track mind and its to destroy the Hive at all cost. Both have a deep drive for something Willow to create a new live and get away from what happened to her and Helion wants to stop the Hive.

Overall I liked this story, I would say this was a 3.5/3.7 stars for me. I always love the connection between matched mates and their journey into figuring things out. There is always miscommunication, however I didn't really like how Willow handled things on her end as she blamed Helion and didn't bother to ask nor did she share. But he got the blunt end of things. Since normally there are two mates the Primary and his second, Helion not having a second caused issues too. I don't think that Willow handled that well and was a little peeved with her actions. The romance side as always is on fire, its intense and I always like how to couple balance each other out. This series is always just getting started so I cant wait to see who is next in Primal Mates.

In the end there is a lot of action scenes and I loved seeing the past couples pop in to see how they are all doing. The Hive is still insanely scary and I'm looking forward to seeing how they can be stopped.

{Release Blitz: Review} Beast Charming by Grace Goodwin


Beast Charming by Grace Goodwin is now live!


Warlord Tane of Atlan is a warrior, not a prince. 
So why is he wearing these ridiculous white pants and gold-trimmed jacket? 

And gods help him, why are there hundreds of females in glittering gowns, circling like vultures, expecting him to dance? 
The human producers of the Bachelor Beast television show thought this would be a good idea; dress up an unmated Warlord like a fairytale prince, invite hundreds of eligible human women to a ‘Cinderella Ball’, turn on their cameras, and record everything. 
And then he sees her. His mate. The only female who can tame his beast. 
But… 
This princess wasn’t supposed to be at the ball. A borrowed ballgown. A stolen invitation. A friend in trouble. Everything is going according to plan…until she can no longer resist temptation. 
Surely one dance won’t hurt? Even a dance with a beast. 
Don’t miss this wild and twisted Cinderella story.

REVIEW:

The fifth installment to the Interstellar Brides Program spinoff, The Beast follows Elena, who rushes onto the set of The Bachelor Ball, where they are currently looking for the mate match of Warlord Tane. Elena is looking for Abby, the young daughter to her powerful boss and horrible man, who also hates the coalition and aliens. What Elena wasn't expecting was to come face to face with Tane and Tanes beast be instantly connect to her. But that's only the beginning of their problems.

I've read all the prior spinoffs and the original series and I still can't get enough of these alpha male aliens claiming their mates, while also the side story of the pending fight against the Hive lingers in the background. I loved the world building, the differences between all the alien species and most of all the utter devotion to these unexpecting women whom they fall for.

I don't wat to give too much away but past characters will pop up and mentions from other series as well. But this story focuses on Elena and her Beast and how they need to overcome the complexity of falling for an alien on earth.

BLURB:

Nine years ago, he broke my heart and never returned. I vowed to forget him…if only I could.

When I was a child, I fell in love with a Dakkari boy. The prince of our clan. Rukkar, we called him. For he was destined to become the greatest horde king of our time.

He was Kiran of Rath Okkili. My friend. My strong, unyielding protector. His mischievous smile and golden eyes made my heart flutter and my soul sing. And just when I began to believe he returned my love…he shattered me so completely and never once looked back to see how I’d survived.

Nine years later, he’s returned.

Only, he’s not a prince anymore.

He’s a horde king. Cold and cruel. With molten eyes like sin and a body made for war.

I promised myself I’d never love him again.

He intends to make a liar out of me.

Because he not only wants my love again…he also demands me as his queen.

REVIEW

I had this series recommended to me from a book group, after picking up the first group I read all four in the span of a week. I love the world building, the different aliens, but more so I love the Dakkari. Each story follows a Horde King and his interaction and building romance with a human female. Each character and romance is vastly different, as well as the backstory of something brewing in their world continues in each book. This one follow Kiran and Maeve, who actually grew up together, which is rare for their kind to do so. They had a strong bond growing up, but it eventually lead to Maeve being heartbroken and Kiran leaving to become a Horde King.

It shows bits of the past and present, which helps understand how these two became who they are now. Maeve has become a healer and has come to Kiran's horde at his request. Now the two have to learn how to heal the wounds of the past along with the dangers of their world growing each day. I can't wait to meet the next couple and so interested in all the new Horde Kings of the future who are coming to battle something happening in the Dead Land.

BLURB:

Two honorable warriors with nothing left to lose...until they find her.

Prillon warrior Thomar Arcas is the royal heir to his ancestor’s legacy of dishonor, betrayal and death. When he was captured by the Hive, some on his home world cheered. Some sighed with relief. None shed a tear.

Thomar and his second, Varin, break free and destroy an enemy base, barely escaping with their lives. They transport to The Colony, the last refuge for contaminated males. Upon arrival they suffer in agony, their cyborg implants fighting for control of the powerful warriors.

Defeat is not in their blood. Not in their history. Not in their souls. Unable to sever their ties to the Hive integrations, they suffer relentless pain. Unwilling to force others to suffer, Thomar has chosen an honorable death over further disgrace; until they are matched to a human female from Earth who will do anything, and sacrifice anyone, to save them.

REVIEW:

Another fantastic edition to the Interstellar brides series, this is book nine in The Colony spin off. Grace Goodwin has created such a vast history in each book, she connects everything so well continuing with the Hive storyline as a threat and expanding and maybe resolving the ultimate enemy. I love that not only we get a ton of romance but the readers get a ton of action and suspense because of the dangerous intergalactic universe.

Claimed by the Cyborgs follows Danika, who has chosen to leave earth after being given a choice to leave of stay an an inmate after she took a life. But Danika is a survivor, she has been through hell and will do anything to make sure her younger brother can have a good life. Now she is sent to a planet known as The Colony and comes face to face with two men whom she couldn't dream up. As a interstellar bride she is mated to her perfect match and her perfect match is a Prillion Warrior who also will share his bride with his second in command. When Danika arrives she found out there is something very wrong and she may lose her mates before she can even know their names.

The romance as always is off the charts, Goodwin knows how to make her readers squirm and fan themselves for hours. The men are always protective and demanding, however they are devoted, loving and will do anything to keep their mate safe. I love how each alien race is so very different except for how much they love their mates, each love unconditionally and its very swoon worthy.

Th suspense was off the charts, a lot happens and more of the Hive story unfolds even more. I feel we are getting closer to answers and hopefully a resolution so that there could be some sort of peace. I can't wait to see what happens with the next bride.

{Cover Revea} Claimed by the Cyborgs by Grace Goodwin

 

Grace Goodwin has revealed the cover for Claimed by the Cyborgs!



Releasing October 28, 2021


Prillon warrior Thomar Arcas is the royal heir to his ancestor's legacy of dishonor, betrayal and death. When he was captured by the Hive, some on his home world cheered. Some sighed with relief. None shed a tear.

Thomar, along with his second, Varin, break free and destroy an enemy base, barely escaping with their lives. They transport to The Colony, the last refuge for contaminated males. Upon arrival they suffer in agony, their cyborg implants fighting for control of the powerful warriors.

Defeat is not in their blood. Not in their history. Not in their souls. Unable to sever their ties to the Hive implants, and suffering unrelenting pain, the warriors are about to choose an honorable death over further disgrace; until they are matched to a human female from Earth who very much needs their broken pieces to make herself whole. A female whom they crave with an intensity that just might pull them back from the brink of death.

Danika Gray left Earth to start a new life. With every touch, every kiss, every moment in their arms she finds herself closer to the paradise she seeks. But how can she free her new mates from endless torment? Fight an enemy she cannot see?

Love and passion are her only weapons. Lust. Desire. She must surrender everything she is—give in to their insatiable hunger—in order to save them.

Even that might not be enough...

BLURB:

Two friends have disappeared playing Starfighter Training Academy. No one cares because it's just a game. Right?

My BFFs went missing after beating the hottest new multi-player game on the planet, Starfighter Training Academy. They won. They celebrated. They vanished. So what's the girl left behind supposed to do? 

Beat the damn game, that's what. Find out the truth, even if that includes being recruited to fight in an alien war, lusting after the hottest alien I've ever seen, and marching into a battle there's little chance of winning.

I will find my friends. I will learn what the heck is going on. And I will kiss the alien hunk I've been staring at for weeks.

REVIEW:

The third book in the Starfighter Training Academy, brings readers to the final trio of friends who are brought into the battle against Queen Raya and the Dark Fleet. Just like the previous, Lily thought she was playing a video game but it was actually a recruiting game to help fight an evil Queen in space.

Lily is a no nonsense woman, when Darius comes for her he is taken back she is already waiting for him. Mia from the previous book sent lily a message so she is ready. In the Academy "game" Lily was a force, she control Titan and as soon and she and Darius get to the home base they are thrown right into action. What was interesting was that Mia and Jamie from the prior books, the woman were very into their mate/partner. Lily is very closed off and a bit cold, it took a bit longer for me to connect with her because of her persona.

Darius is taken back by Lily, she is not what he expected but 100% dedicated to protecting her and being by her side. He also has some secrets which cause Lily and him to have a lot of disagreements. But I adored him, his actions and protectiveness spoke a lot about what he's been through and who he is.

In the end the battle scenes were fantastic, the way this duo was thrown into the thick of things and pretty much put in life or death situations, and kept their cool, spoke volumes on how great of a team they are.

When the series started it introduced the trio of ladies, but there are more people on each that have played this same "game" as these three so I'm hoping for new duos to come and support this kick butt team and finally defeat Queen Raya.
